Fact: I sometimes wear mens clothing.

oversized jersey beanie, Padded nylon backpack, Army shoulder bag, Six scents #4  

Am I becoming and ALT bro or something? Recently most of my inspirations are being driven by unisex/male clothing, with the oversize-ness and all. Of course I'll add my feminine touches here and there, but my outfits are being centered around mens clothing. I've been enjoying some semi ugly but beautiful man bags (guilty pleasure?). Been obsessed with beanies and I think I've found THE perfect one. I've been needing some new scents, desperate for out of the ordinary rings, and wouldn't mind a black pair of my favorite combat boots. On another note, has anyone else noticed the mass postage of skull rings recently? Dr Martens 1460 classic, Margiela nail ring, fingerless gloves
I need you back in my life!

Need of the moment: I recently washed my clothes and my iphone after reluctantly forgetting I had left it in my pant pocket. Why don't I just wear leggings from now on...? I need to buy another one since there seems to be no way in hell that it's going to revive itself.

Listening to:CSS - alala
Jamie T - Sheila 
How bloody gangster am I?

Even though I've never, watched the movie (and in all honesty, don't intend to) I want to learn this dance ah ha ha >_> <_< wtf?

Hahaha! Step Up 2. What do you mean you haven't seen it China Le? I thought you'd have been first in line ;) I don't blame you for wanting to learn that dance. Does he have any bones in his body?!

Wow, the bagpack looks really good!! Happy New Year!

sugarxnspice said...

I secretly love shopping in the men's dept too (amidst stares from sales girls), esp for long sleeved men's shirts.

Hehe, have a wonderful new year! :)

Susanna-Cole said...

Menswear can be pretty chic sometimes, and sometimes girls can wear it better than boys! We're special like that haha. Anyway, I especially love something tough mixed with something sweet and girly. :)

Thanks for your super sweet comment, and blessings to you for the new year! <3

xoxo,
S-C

Shini said...

love men's department, they have the best nondescript black bags really :P I love that Margiela Nail ring, since I can't afford it, maybe I should just head down to the toolbox in the garage :'( sob

LOVE THAT SONG.
and believe me, my favorite clothing items are unisex. i love this a.a. unisex polo i have. amazing.

hrose said...

oh no about the iphone! they really need to invent a waterproof one that will solve problems like this... on that note i really need to get an iphone haha.. my brother has one and i love it and play with it all the time. i need my own. they are just the best.

re the men's clothing issue.,. that's very interesting because i've been going in the opposite way, not wearing my baggy loose, men's items and going more for the tailored and fitted and pretty feminine patterned clothes... interesting... :)

hope you are well, and happy new year! can't wait to see what 2009 brings.

Maria C said...

Hello love,

I hope you had a awesome New Year... it's 2009!!
What did you get up to to celebrate the shebang?

I too am one of those people that wear boys clothes... i swear they have better t-shirts, t-shirts prints, jeans, jackets, shoes... Freak i wish i had a womens size 10 foot...so i could at least wear a men's size 7 or 8.... then i would be able to buy a shit load of hot arse Nike Dunk Hi's and men's brogues!!!
oh, the perils of being Asian with small feet :(

CSS rocks mayn! love em... have you listenened to Bonde De Role? another killer brazilian band... if you have the chance go to a Bonde concert ;)

lizbeth said...

Happy New Year!!! xo

Girl Japan said...

Isn't it true.. Men's clothes are the best... I love how classy, yet simple but underrated they are..

TheMinx said...

I'm all about borrowing from the boys lately, it might have something to do with wanting to be warm haha. Happy new year! I love the song on your sidebar, <3 CSS.

Bombchell said...

lol if it makes u feel any better, I prefer the smell of men's shaving cream, men's bathing soap, etc to womens lol

I also dont like super flowery perfumes. lol

susie_bubble said...

Happy New Year....made the fatal mistake of browsing The Corner, supposedly for the boyfriend but ended up hankering after plenty of Raf Simons.... his new collabs with Eastpak and Doc Martens are especially tempting...

chocandcinnamon said...

I also like men clothes :D And I've seen the movie, I liked it, and the last dance is incredible!
Happy New Year sweetie!

SO. said...

damn, i praise you if you can wear mens clothes and not look like a little boy. i love them but i know i will be drowning in my clothes and people will mistake me for a lesbian all the time. but yeah i love menswear and just men items. people are shocked/scared when i say i like certain things and go through with actually buying them...

and what just happened to your resolution post. i just refreshed your page and its gone now!

maggie said...

haha that dance was bomb diggity! XD awwies poor ipod. i dropped mine in the toilet before... and had the apple people fix it :| men's clothes are seemingly sooooo much better than women's these days. but then again the androgyny's pretty sexayyyy. :D Happy New Year (though i'm a day late =\)

Karla said...

dude, That's my favorite movie!
I love cheesy dance movies

fashionissex said...

dude yessssss i can so relate.

Serena said...

Interesting!

When it comes to men’s clothing the first thought which sparks in my mind is designer jeans. Anything will be suitable with designer jeans might be tees, shirts, jackets or blazers. Men in designer jeans look cool and handsome!
